28 Months Earlier - Sibling Rivalry
For years, Director Smalls and ACS/M-Division have been secretly working hand-in-hand with the U.S. Pentagon experimenting on captured Nephilim monsters. The goal has been to test their abilities by pitting the creatures against one another in controlled area battles.
Director Smalls reasoned that he needed to fully understand the range and upper limits of the Nephilim's powers if he was going to defeat them. Furthermore, he desperately wanted to recreate the Nephilim's natural abilities and sorcery in advanced technology. Director Smalls had his scientists chart every nuance of the arena battles between the Nephilim siblings, however he sensed that the monsters were hiding their abilities.
Director Smalls decided to raise the stakes against the wishes of his science/security staff and the U.S. Generals on hand. He ordered his scientists to insert three combatants into the controlled arena fight - a Mai'Wai Vampyre, a Huay Chivo sorcerer, and a Convexatoid. The resulting skirmish resulted in the three Nephilim banding together and ultimately engineering their escape from the Pentagon's secret military prison. The Nephilim's full abilities were finally revealed, but the question remains: was this Director Smalls' secret plan all along?
